It's supposed to be out now, but I haven't received a copy myself. Alas, it's only in hardback, at a whopping £45 although I can get copies at a discount if anyone wants to order one directly from me. If you are based at a university, do order it for your library. The sequel to the book (I had too much material for one volume) comes out in April 2005 under the title Blanchot's Testimony: Writing Without Power.
